Understand the core loop

1. Pick your side

Read the next branch before every swing. Banded logs take two hits, so keep your eyes on the trunk.

2. Make a comeback

Spend a whirlwind when the tree gets tricky, then earn stars and coins to improve your kit.

3. A complete woodland trail

Follow twelve chapter stories with a map, music, upgrades, a finale, and saved progress.

Plan your next attempt

Read the branch above the next log before choosing a side. Banded logs take two hits, which changes the timing of the next decision. A whirlwind can help with a difficult tree; stars and coins support later kit improvements.

When something goes wrong

Pause with Escape and check the help in your build. For a repeatable problem, note the build version, the stage or chapter, the input device and the steps that led to it. Send those details through support and feedback.

Windows playtesting is ongoing. Controller and other device support should be checked against the specific build; a listed binding does not establish hardware compatibility. See current development information.
